preparation :

drain 1 can of chickpeas completely and drain half of water from another can

mixed all ingredients into food processor  except olive oil, pulse food processor until all ingredients are smooth and well blended

and add olive oil, pulse for another a minute or so,save on the fridge and ready to use for spread on the bagels or dip with vegetables you like.

I count the number of time I have tasted humus, that too when I am in other countries. Back home it must be my sambal belacan and food with plenty of chili padi.

That said, I should try out your recipe. I do buy chick peas and these are there in my pantry. Fabulous dip and I will love to pair it with some salted crackers.
